    Fortitude

    Season Two now available. Anyone else love this? First series was mad as a box of frogs, but gripping and dark, wonderfully atmospheric and great fun too. All episodes available in one go for season two.

    It's Thursday, chaps!

    Can only mean one thing .... Wycombe at home in the Checkatrade thingy and a 6'4 strapping striker and a midfield general announced as signing for us in time for Saturday.

    Verman now signed

    If he can get 20 goals between now and the end of the season we might just stay up.

    If we go down will Mowbray go down as one of our worst ever managers?

    Just by the very fact that he would have presided over a City side that ended up in the lowest tier of league football. He has to hasn't he? His abomination of a summer recruitment policy has cost us dear. I liked him when he was here at first, but in the end he lost the plot and it's his and...

    The antisocial aspect of VR headsets

    Has anyone encountered this yet? I can foresee it maybe being a big problem. Hard enough to get kids off their phones. With kids immersed in a 3D world and their peripheral vision to the outside impaired as a result and with earphones on, I can see it being a major problem. First encountered a...

    What the hell?!?

    I wake up this morning to find Donald Trump still in office after a couple of hours and NOT assassinated! What on earth is going on? Very disappointing. Come on people, you can do better than this. Grrrrr.....

    Homeland is back

    Bloody hell! Thought this had been put down now. Started off excellently, but it has steadily been going down hill and the last series was poor. Flogging a dead horse?

    Two players ruled as rapists

    I see Plymouth have quite rightly said that Goodwillie will not be selected and they await the full report. Footballers Goodwillie and Robertson ruled as rapists - BBC News A former Scotland international footballer and his ex-teammate have been ruled to be rapists and ordered to pay £100,000...

    Relegation thread

    Yes, I know, I know, jumping the gun a bit. Not trying to be pessimistic, but there are now just 20 games left and we have only won 4 games all season. Let's go with the usual benchmark of 50 points being safe. That means, out of the last 20 games we will probably have to ... Win 9, draw 2...

    Driving speed.

    Just gauging how people drive. So, what speed to you drive at in the following speed limits 20 mph zone ? 30 mph? 40 mph? 50 mph? 60 mph? 70 mph? Might sound odd, but I drive differently and adhere to the speeds differently based on the zone. In a 20 mph zone I will only drive at 20...

It will also avoid any false ticket entitlement claims in...

    Eakinballs

    Maybe this can become a sticky. Don't wish this to be a rip into Clive Eakin thread, but a Colemanballs type gentle poke for any commentator blunder. Doesn't have to just be Eakinism's, can be any little bits of commentary where they get it all wrong. After the Bolton being called Burton and...

    Five Guys Named Moe

    Anyone rate this place? I went once, quite liked the fries (cooked in peanut oil), but otherwise found it distinctly average and bland. Seems to be very popular and in a poll for which should be the next restaurant chain to move into Cathedral Lanes, it scored top spot. Turtle Bay was 2nd, 3rd...

    Brighton in the EFL Trophy

    I see the club are only opening the main stand again at present. Was thinking I would like to go to this one, but checked online and it's just the main stand open. Do you think they will open the east stand for this one too at some point, or won't the interest be there? Who's going? Who's...

    League One games tonight

    I only just realised that there are games on tonight. Swindon are losing at MK, Shrewsbury are losing and Chesterfield are drawing. Be nice if they stayed that way. Chesterfield going behind would be helpful too of course.
